I’d like an input_color component that shows a nice hex color picker in the UI.
From what I understand state can only return a value so the component would return the hex value for that color.
With some templating it’s then easy to retrieve the RGB.
UI cloud look like this: https://github.com/David-Mulder/paper-color-picker
Dear Diaoul,
yeah that would be a great feature, i voted for it!
We should’t have just a show input_color, we should be able to use it in automations!
I use automated light in my stairwell and color notifications for different stuff, would be neat if i could set the color for this automations dynamically over the dashboard ;-).
Same function as the light group has, but just as an input_color (except effect) 
for the templates and automations!
Thats a bit to static:
action:
- service: light.turn_on
data:
entity_id: light.staircase_1floor
brightness: 160
color_temp: 300
